1. Attendance Rationale
Rigorous academic progress in Pearson Edexcel International GCSE and A-Level courses relies fundamentally on consistent classroom participation, laboratory practicals, and collaborative discussion.
2. Attendance Benchmark
- All enrolled students must maintain a minimum verified attendance rate of 95% across each academic term.
- Sustained unexcused absences falling below this threshold will prompt an immediate formal consultation between the student's parents and the Academic Director.
3. Reporting Absences
1. Unexpected Illness: Parents/guardians must notify the School Attendance Office via SMS or telephone (0638 216406) before 07:30 AM on the day of absence.
2. Medical Certification: Any absence exceeding two consecutive days must be accompanied by an official clinic or hospital certificate upon the student's return.
3. Planned Leave of Absence: Requests for leave during term time must be submitted to the Principal at least five working days in advance.
